Service at Grace church today Early celebration, 8 a. tn. : morning prayer and sermon. U a. m.: Sunday school, 12.30 p. m.; evening prayer, 7:30: Holy Innocents, 3:30. It has been sugeeied that the Push club take up the maeter of removing the eyesores of old buildings and half torn down warehouses along the water front and the renovating and cleanlng-up of the back ends of bu'.idrnjrs which are the first things visible to those arriving on boats and trains. The last outing picnic of the season occurred yesterday afternoon. About thirty young people boarded the steamer Queen and visited Knappton. Af:er luncheon on the shore, they walked up the bicycle path to the hall, where an Impromptu dance was held. The party reJlurwd at 10:30 p. m. Quite a number of country folk were In town yesterday taking advantage of Herman Wise's P.ed letter Bale; our neighbors from the rural district are Just as eager for bargains as their city cousins: they know good clothing, hat and furnshlnes when they're offered cheap as well as the closest buyers. Mr. MeOregrir, of the council committee on fire and water, says that because of his loyalty to Anturta. and Clatsop county he will not state the reasons why the fire deiwrtment bought Willamette valley hay. But he offers to purchase 100 tons of hay or less from Clatsop county farmers and pay one dollar per ton more for it. than was paid for the Willamette valley hay. 8ecrary K. C HMden, of, the Chamber of Commerce, in !n reoent of al tetter from Senator Mr-Bride, In which he regretted his lability to accept the Invitation of the Astoria Chamber of Commerce, and s'ating that he would be pleased to hir suirestlors about leg. lslatlon for the Improvement of Astoria harbor and for the establ'shnv-nt of a quarantine statfon here. The next question, It Is hinted, which will be considered by the Push Club, is that of fire Insurance In Astoria. With a higher rate of premiums than Is paid by most places, and a very small amount of ToMses paid here by the companies. Astoria dors not make a very good show ing when visitors looking for a location for a store ask pertinent questions. Crackers SOIU CRACK KRS 1 pound cartoon. .

Complaints are being made by porperty owners of various kinds of nuisances, hog pens, etc., which are being main. talned In the very heart of the city. They are thankful that the ctty council has gin as far as Introducing an prill, nance regulating such matters. Rev. Henry Miiroltte. pastor, being tn attendance at the synced of the Pres. byterlnns of Oregon, now In session at Grant's Pass, there will be no preaching services today, n,t the Presbyterian church. The Sunday school and society of Christian endeavor wilt corvene at the usual hours. A large number of people were' !n from the Nehalem yesterday and brought In large quantities of produce, which they readily sold and carried home with tlwm winter stores and clothing. All the mer. chants did a good buslneiw and only hope for a continuance of the fine weather which has kift the roods in such good condition for a month longer than usual. Mr. J. B. Kellogg, a Portland cnpt.il- tst. who has been hunting and fishing for two weeks In the vicinity of Seaside. passed through the dry yesterday on his way home. He said that Oregon never had finer weather thin this October. Besides being pteasan for thoe who 1 ve outdoor sports, ft has been worth thous. Besides being pleasant for those who tove been able to reach markets over roads whMi are ordinarily knee deep In mud 'Tes. I look for a big change In Orrvon The people are already spending mrmev because they nave It to sptd. Oregon Is coming to the front and her population Is Increasing rapMly. The new railroad to Astoria will be a great factor In th future business of the stjte. Any one can see that It Is being birllt for the heaviest traffic. As has been said many montns ago ny tne Astonan. the new road will no doubt be a part of the el- gantic Western mllmnrl combination, which Is rapHfy being consummated with the reorganization of the T'nlon Pacific.
